Numbers for Nerds:

Although the Ducks did not score a goal in Game 1, some players managed to have positive possession numbers. Ryan Kesler was the top forward at 66%, and Brandon Montour was the top defenseman at 62%. If the Ducks are to score a legitimate goal tonight, they will need to put more shots on Martin Jones. 25 shots will not be enough.
